As Tony was engaged in movie he suddenly felt a weight on his chest, and as he looked down, he saw his son, Peter, sleeping peacefully there.
The sight of Peter, his biggest source of happiness, nestled against him, melted away the stress and worries of the day. Tony's heart swelled with love and warmth as he gently wrapped his arms around Peter.
Tony never imagined himself becoming a father, but when he learned about Peter, a sudden urge to hold him and never let go filled his heart. And when he met Peter in the hospital for the first time, he made a silent promise to protect him from any harm.
He came out of his thoughts as Pepper shook him. "The movie is over. Are you both going to sleep here, or should you bring him to his room?" She asked.
Tony smiled and said, "We'll sleep here. It's been a while since I cuddled with my son."
Pepper nodded, smiling. She really loved the kid. He might be her boyfriend's son, but she also saw him as her child. She would do anything for him, he was as precious to her as he was to Tony.
"Before that, I want to show you something," Tony said. "What is it?" she asked. Tony slowly moved Peter from his chest, not wanting to disturb him. He gently laid Peter on the couch and took Pepper's hand, leading her to his room.
As Tony led Pepper to his room, he couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. He had been planning this surprise for weeks, hoping it would worth it.When they reached the room, Tony paused at the door and turned to Pepper with a soft smile. "Close your eyes," He instructed.
Pepper raised an eyebrow, but closed her eyes, allowing Tony to guide her inside."Okay, open them," Tony said softly.Pepper opened her eyes and gasped.
The room was softly lit with fairy lights, and in the center was a sleek, custom-built computer setup, complete with multiple monitors, a state-of-the-art gaming chair, and an array of gadgets that any teenager would envy."I wanted to make something special for Peter," Tony explained. "A space where he can unwind, study, and have fun. He's growing up so fast, and I want him to have everything he needs."
Pepper's eyes widen in surprise and wae. "Tony, this is incredible. He's going to love it."
Tony wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close." I hope so." He said.
She also hugged him back. " I am one hundred percent sure he gonna love it."
Tony broke the hug and hold Paper's hand, and kissed it. " Alright if you say so my love."
She smiled "But... Tony if he wakes up he will feel lonely." She said pushing Tony. "
Tony huffed dramatically. "Pepper, he's not a baby anymore. He can take care of himself."
Pepper chuckled and shook her head. "Oh, really?"
Tony nodded, crossing his arms. "Do you know who you're talking about? It's Spider-Man! The strongest person I know, and the son of Iron Man."
Pepper rolled her eyes, smiling. "Alright, Mr. Iron Man. Let's get back before our superhero wakes up and wonders where we went."Tony laughed and nodded, taking Pepper's hand as they made their way back to the living room.
As they approached the couch, Tony noticed something was off. The spot where Peter had been sleeping was empty.
"Peter?" Tony called out, looking around the room. There was no response. He exchanged a worried glance with Pepper.
"Maybe he went to his room," Pepper suggested, but Tony's instincts told him otherwise.
"FRIDAY, where's Peter?" Tony asked, his voice filled with concern.
"Peter left the building approximately five minutes ago," FRIDAY replied.Tony's heart sank. "Left the building? Why didn't you alert me?"
"He left through the window, sir. It was unexpected."Tony felt a rush of anxiety. "Did he say where he was going?"
"No, sir."Pepper's face mirrored Tony's worry. "We need to find him, Tony. He might be in trouble."Tony nodded, already moving toward his suit. "FRIDAY, track his suit's location."
"He has not taken his suit sir"
Tony froze, his heart skipping a beat at Pepper's revelation. "What do you mean he hasn't taken his suit?" He asked, his voice tinged with concern.
Pepper shook her head, her brow furrowed with worry. "I mean exactly that, Tony. Peter left without his suit. I don't know if he is alright or not ! " Tony's mind raced with possibilities, each one more terrifying than the last. Without the protection of his suit, Peter was exposed to all the dangers of the city. "FRIDAY, do you have any idea where he might have gone?"
"I'm sorry, sir. Without his suit's tracking signal, I cannot pinpoint his location," FRIDAY replied, her voice tinged with regret.
Tony clenched his fists, frustration and fear bubbling within him. "Call him on his phone," Tony instructed."He left his phone too in the room," FRIDAY replied solemnly.
Tony's heart sank even further at FRIDAY's response. The realization hit him like a ton of bricks - Peter had left without his suit, without his phone, completely untraceable.
Pepper placed a comforting hand on Tony's arm, her eyes filled with concern. "We'll find him, Tony. We have to."
Tony nodded, trying to push down the rising panic threatening to consume him. "But why did he leave suddenly? He could have informed us! And he's out after his curfew; it's not acceptable."
"Tony clam down, we have to take this situation patiently.
" I can't !!! I can't " Tony clenched his fists, frustration and fear bubbling within him. "We have to find him, Pepper. He could be in serious trouble out there.And in this situation I can't be calm !"
Pepper squeezed Tony's arm gently, trying to reassure him. "I understand, Tony. We'll find him, I promise. But we need to stay calm and think clearly. Panicking won't help Peter."
Tony took a deep breath, trying to steady his racing heart. "You're right, Pepper. We need to focus." Pepper nodded, her own worry mirroring.
"I'll find him. You stay here in case he comes back."Pepper nodded, her eyes filled with worry. "Be careful, Tony."
With a nod, Tony flew out of the window, scanning the city below for any sign of Peter.
Peter swung through the city, his mind a whirlwind of emotions. He couldn't shake the feeling of loneliness and betrayal from his nightmare, and hearing Tony's words through the door had only intensified his fears.
He finally landed on a secluded rooftop, taking a moment to catch his breath. The city lights twinkled below him, but he felt a million miles away from home. Peter sat down, his back against a wall, and buried his face in his hands."Why did he say that?" Peter muttered to himself. "Why did he have to make me feel so alone?"
As he sat there, lost in his thoughts, a figure approached him. Peter looked up, shocked.
"Hey, Spider-Man," the figure greeted him." A.k.a Peter Stark hun !"
Peter's eyes widened. "Vulture," He whispered in disbelief."What do you want?" Peter asked, his voice tense with apprehension.
Vulture smirked, his wings unfurling menacingly behind him. "Oh, you know very well what I want. I want to destroy Stark Industries. But I've had a change of heart. Now, I'm not just after the company, I'm after Stark himself, and his precious son, you Peter Stark ! "
Peter's heart raced at Vulture's words, a cold chill running down his spine. He knew he was in grave danger, both as Spider-Man and as Peter Stark.
"You won't lay a finger on my dad ! " Peter said, his voice steady despite the fear coursing through him.
Vulture chuckled darkly, taking a step closer. "Oh I will not , but I will definitely lay hand on you as I want to see the look on Stark's face when he realizes he's lost everything. And you, my dear Peter Stark, will be the catalyst for his downfall."
With that, Vulture lunged at Peter, launching his attack with his razor-sharp talons strongly.With lightning-fast reflexes, Peter swung into action, dodging Vulture's razor-sharp talons and countering with a series of agile maneuvers.
He somersaulted through the air, weaving between Vulture's swooping attacks and delivering swift kicks him which made him fall on the floor of the terrace, which made Vulture more angry.
He stands up on his leg and picked up Peter and flew towards an abandoned building, he threw him onto the ground.
As Peter lay there, looking up at him, Vulture knelt in front of him and uttered, "Your father did the same thing I'm doing. That's why you guys are rich! And if I do it, it's my fault! How!?"
Peter pushed him back and stood up as Vulture fell to the ground. "Why don't you think about Liz? About your family ??" Peter exclaimed.
"Don't you dare mention my daughter's name! You were good for her, but not now as Spider-Man and Tony Stark's son," Vulture retorted angrily as he pressed a button on his remote, causing the building to collapse.
With a menacing laugh, he flew off from there as the whole building fell on Peter.
